I feel exactly as you do when it comes to lipstick shades Kandee! thanks for the heads up on this color, wgats best about this color is 100% of the funds go to charity I hear. I cannot wait to get my hands on it! xoxo

Hey,I thought you met Gaga because I did a few days ago at Pinkberry in NYC. Anyways...I really want this but that might be an impulse buy also because I just met her. I havent gone to the MAC store yet and probably won't until the snow storm stops but how does this color compare to Viva Glam VI Special Edition? :)Also, wanted to let you know that I love what you do and I'm incredibly jealous.Jenni

I can't wait to get my grubby little paws on that tube o' lusciousness. Might have to try ordering it because we're buried in snow here in Baltimore, MD. I always love shades of pink... they go well with my rosy complexion ;)

Thank you for your advance notice! I just got a small MAC order in the mail yesterday with three new, never-tried items: 1) 2N Lipglass 2) Modesty lipstick and 3) Patina eyeshadow. I tried them all out last night and am so glad I just went for it and tried some new things. I felt proud, even though it was a small effort.

Kandee i have learned so many valuable tips from you! I can't thank you enough! I'm probably not your average fan as i am a 40- yr-old Midwesterner but i enjoy your video's and blog very much! I have incorporated some of your techniques into my beauty routine and can honestly say, i look better...they work!!! Consequently, I FEEL better about myself. It's hard growing older, esp when lines and wrinkles start appearing in the mirror. I appreciate you so much!!!!Keep up all of your wonderful educating, you are truely a beautiful person!

Oh yes I heard about the Gaga Viva glam.. She had an interview in Marie Claire this month and said her favorite shade used to be MAC Pink Nouveau (not sure if i spelled it correctly ) and she basically tweaked the Pink Nouveau to get this new amazing shade.. said if you layer the viva glam Gaga you should get Pink Nouveau.

Kandee, thank you so much for all of your inspiration. Everything you say about spending a little extra time to make yourself feel beautiful is true. You are helping me become a more confident person one step at a time.

These looks like a cool shades. It's a shame they don't sell mac cosmetics where i live...We have almost everything EXCEPT mac lol. Well maybe ,that's for hte best,cause i wuold spend all my money on their products :D Hey Kandee, you're really an amazing person, basically you're the reason why i started my own blog :)) I learned so much from you, bless ya girl ;)

I LOVE LADY GAGA!! I loved your little poem! lol Man if only I werent Black, that pink wouldnt look good on me AT ALL! lol But it is very pretty! & they say lipstick with blue hues makes your teeth look whiter!

Feeling pretty is so important every girl deserves to look pretty, Im going to change my hair!

Hey Kandee! I love your site. I saw these colors at the MAC store but they weren't up for sale as yet. I love the color Pink Plaid from MAC it's a really pretty nude pink (lips have red undertones). Please check my blog out! I am sent makeup to review! WWW.Whatstherage.blogspot.com

You're awesome Kandee, but lady gaga is pure evil. Her music video 'bad romance' is loaded with satanic imagery. vigilantcitizen(dot)com wrote some revealing pieces on her. This is off-topic, but he even suggests the Taylor Swift/Kanye West fiasco at the MTV awards was planned. He's in the music industry and gives good arguments. (please don't do a lady gaga tutorial)

Hi Kandee, I'm Lula from Buenos Aires, Argentina... I've been following your work for a couple of months and I just now decided to send you a message here, to thank you sooooooo very much for sharing your work with us! It's amazing, YOU are amazing actually.

I've always been crazy about make up and I've neglected it for a couple of years because I wasn't happy with me, my body, my face, etc, and I felt like doing that would bring unwanted attention to an ugly me. Thankfully I passed that stage and thanks to your tips and wisdom I feel really pretty with my clothes, the make up and everything.

And I guess I could tell you this, you might be proud too, I watch all your videos and my brain already starts imagining how I could modify it so it would be MY style, or it would be day-time make up, night-time make up... I just feel great that I have complete freedom to make myself feel beautiful.

MAKE UP RULES AND SO DO YOU!And well, being a woman is really the best :)

Romans 5:3-5 we also glory in tribulations,knowing that tribulation procuces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope. Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been pourd out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us. These verses have spoken to me so much when I have gone through difficult times. Love you. ~Jayne

I just picked up my Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper Viva Glam Lipsticks and I absolutely LOVE them!!! I'm olive skin tone and both of these colors look stunning. I thought I wouldn't be able to pull off these colors and I'm so glad I can!

I saw Lady Gaga and Cindy on the Today show this morning. I am going straight to make and pic a lipstick up! This is such a great thing they are doing for women. Love all you video's and blogs. I just created my own photography blog spot. Check it out!

just discovered you looking for how to cut a tshirt 80s style and I had to drop in to say I love your videos. Your Q&A cracked me up, the no swearing one I loved!! I will be reading your blog and watching your videos.......

I LOVE the Cyndi Lauper one!!!! + I totally lover her.The swatches on lips are on here: http://www.temptalia.com/mac-from-our-lips-collection-lady-gaga-cyndi-lauper-for-viva-glam-swatches-product-photos

I got them both today. It was a splurge, but that fact that 100% goes to charity was a major pull. Usually, I know wear nude, pink or brownish colors...to my surprise both of these colors looked gorgeous on and can be layered to be a stronger pigment. Plus, after playing with some liners and glosses I had from MAC both colors changed drastically. They can be transformed to work with any complexion. You just have to work with them a bit. How can you deny purchasing a little more MAC for such a wonderful cause! (PS women ages 16-45 are being infected with HIV/AIDS at a faster rate than any other group...so this cause should be near and dear to all our hearts!)

Can you do a tutorial with the new viva glams (gaga and cyndi if you have them both)? They are such beautiful colors and the reddish coral Cyndi one is suppose to be in this spring and I have no clue how to wear that kind of a shade.
